jeff hodge - john wayne lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
used to be cowboy strong
the man could fix anything
he worked the farm till the sun was gone
i heard him cry now and then when he prayed
but as the years went by
his mind slowly died
man it’s hard to watch your hero fade

[chorus]
now he can’t remember my name
he wants to know where i’m from
and he asks if i’ve heard that old song precious memories
he never has much to say
just sits in that old green chair
and he might seem weak
because he’s not the man he used to be
but he’s still john wayne to me

[verse 2]
he loved to watch old black and whites
where the good guy always wins
he said keep your word son and do what’s right
you’ll ride away with a girl in the end
it wasn’t just talk, he walked the walk
she’s a wife, a mother and a friend

[chorus]
but he can’t remember her name
he wants to know where she’s from
can she sing that old song it’s called precious memories
he never has much to say
he just sits in that old green chair
and he might seem weak
because he’s not the man he used to be
but he’s still john wayne to me

[bridge]
when i look at him now i still see a trace
from the shape of his hands and
the lines in his face
of a cowboy who gave every thing for me

[chorus]
he can’t remember my name
he wants to know where i’m from
can she sing that old song it’s called precious memories
he never has much to say
he just sits in that old green chair
and he might seem weak
because he’s not the man he used to be
but he’s still john wayne to me
he might seem weak
he’s not the man he used to be
he’s still john wayne to me
